Tropical Carrot Side Dish

Side Dishes

18 Apr

This side dish is a little different and if I hadn’t tasted it, it might look a little….um…interesting to me. Can I just tell you that it was SO GOOD!!! 

We go to dinner about every other Sunday at my grandparent’s house. Sunday dinner with my extended family has been a tradition since I was young, and something my whole family missed a lot when we moved to Texas when I was in 6th grade. It was no nice when I came back to Utah to go to college because even though my family still lived in Texas, I got to go to Sunday dinner at my grandparents house and have a piece of home with me. This is still one of my favorite things to do and something I look forward to literally all week.

A few weeks ago my mom made this delicious carrot side dish that is healthy but tasted like dessert! I’m not kidding. I don’t have an exact recipe because she just threw it together. This side dish is very forgiving though, and I don’t think you could go wrong with the amounts of each ingredient you put in. You can customize it based on the amount of people you are feeding.

What you’ll need:

Shredded carrots 
Shredded sweetened coconut
Crushed pineapple (drain it first and add a little bit of the juice to the mix at the end)
Pina colada-flavored yogurt

Mix in the desired amount of each ingredient and you have yourself a delicious tropical-tasting side dish. This is a perfect side dish for Easter this Sunday, or any time! The next time I’m craving something sweet but want to stick with a healthier option, I think I’ll make this as a snack too.

      Let me know how you like it! I was amazed by how good it was because it's definitely not something you see all the time 🙂

Tyler gave Warner a beautiful blessing today and i Tyler gave Warner a beautiful blessing today and it struck me all day how I could have never dreamed my life being this beautiful and filled with so many unbelievably incredible people with supportive and meaningful relationships a year and a half ago. Infertility is hard and life is hard. God has been SO GOOD to me. The contrast of going through some of the hardest experiences of my life to this joy is completely opposite, and today was such a celebration and full circle moment for me.

If you’re going through your really hard moments, just remember that there is opposition in all things and I believe that the joy will match the level of discomfort you’re in.

Warner - thank you for being a testament of God’s goodness to us! 🥹🤍 And thank you to my people. You know who you are and I’m here in some of my happiest moments because of you! #babyblessing
The lyrics to “The Best Day” by Taylor Swift k The lyrics to “The Best Day” by Taylor Swift kept running through my mind as I soaked in all of the 7-year-old-ness of my baby girl on our fashion show date night. 🥹 She brought a big backpack full of items “in case I get bored” 🤣 and didn’t end up bringing it in. She is a DELIGHT to be with. I love that I get the privilege of knowing her better every day and lifting her up so she always remembers who she is.

Goldie - “I had the best day with you today.” 🥹🥹 I love your passion, your grand expressions and your humor. I love your creativity and inquisitive nature. I couldn’t be more grateful!

@ivycityco thank you for the beautiful night and the beautiful dresses! My code is JENICA15 🤍 #ivycityco #mommydaughterdate #mygirl #ivfmiracle
